That looks like Jess's car to me, although i could be wrong

I recognise the seats which had recently been done when i first met the car in 2007 i think it was (i knew the owner before Jess). The steering wheel and gearstick are the same, carpet dash look the same as well i think. The date of the body repair fits the timeline too i suppose.

Don't know if Jess had the engine bay looking like that though, wasn't like that before Jess owned it put it that way!

I've never seen seats trimmed the same as those, they felt so luxurious, so that is what i would use to say it's Jess's old mini lol.

I would say it is too, I know hers had that wheel arch/sill white moulding

The suburb is right too from the last time it reared its head :D

Healthy asking price for a car with a Smokey motor and tired interior.

A lot of memories in that car. It was my good mate from schools car for the whole of year 12 and a number of years after. Surprised how many you can squeeze into a mini when there young men, women and alcohol involved.

His dad owns a marketing business. He had a supply of "Powers Bitter" red left over from a job. So we sanded his car down and his dad painted it. Fun times.
